NEW SERMON SERIES

In the pages of Acts, we encounter a diverse array of individuals who played pivotal roles in carrying out God's work within the world. This series explores the work of the Holy Spirit by delving into the lives and actions of these characters. Each message will give a biographical sketch within the great story of the early church. You won’t want to miss any message in this series!

WEEK #1

Sermon Title: Wait Until You Have The Power

Text: Acts 1:1-11
